The gold market continues to be very strong during trading on Wednesday, as the geopolitical risks and central bank accumulation continue to drive prices higher.
The gold market continues to be very strong, as you can see with the market now testing yet another all-time high. There are a lot of geopolitical issues out there that I think traders will be watching, and with that being the case, I think you have to look at short-term pullbacks as potential buying opportunities.
In this environment, I do believe that any short-term pullback that opens up value, you have to take advantage of. Gold is getting a boost due to geopolitical concerns as well as the US dollar shrinking a bit. Nonetheless, it really doesn’t matter. This is a market that’s been on fire for a while and now continues to see plenty of value hunting.
The $4,400 level is an area that I think will continue to be support, and at this juncture, I do think that if we did get back there, the enormous amount of buying would be kind of impressive, even in this environment of runaway momentum.
The 50-day EMA is all the way down at the $4,300 level, and based on the ascending triangle, we could be looking at $4,900. There is nothing on this chart that suggests we can’t get there, so with that being the case, I remain bullish.
I think any time you get a little bit of a pullback, you have to look at it as a potential opportunity in a market that is just chugging right along. There is no opportunity to short this market anytime soon. Gold continues to see plenty of momentum, and this is something that I will not fight anytime soon.
